Okay...I'll give you that, JD...I should have prefaced by saying that I absolutely hated being inside the Springs' city limits. The place was militaristic, overly-religious, and oppressive (one helluva combo). Plus, the city builds traffic violations revenue into it's annual budget, so the police force is really just a front for additional city tax-collectors.

Nonetheless, I'd go back if I could in a heartbeat...I'd just be sure to live up route 24 (or one of the other passes) in the mountains. The crews were fantastic (but like any place, it has it's two or three bad apples), and the flying was good, hitting the entire system. Don't plan on commuting though, it's a pain in the arse!
